1 Installing a Cisco Nexus 332Q-V cluster switch and a passthrough panel in a NetApp cabinet You can install the Cisco Nexus 332Q-V switch and pass-through panel in a NetApp cabinet with the standard brackets that are included with the switch. Before you begin You must have reviewed the initial preparation requirements, kit contents, and safety precautions. Cisco Nexus 3000 Series Hardware Installation Guide About this task For each switch, you must supply the eight 0-32 or 2-24 screws and clip nuts to mount the brackets and slider rails to the front and rear cabinet posts. You must use the Cisco standard rail kit to install the switch in a NetApp cabinet. Note: The jumper cords are not included with the pass-through kit and should be included with your switches. If they were not shipped with the switches, you can order them from NetApp (part number X558A-R6). Steps. Install the pass-through blanking panel in the NetApp cabinet. The pass-through panel kit is available from NetApp (part number X8784-R6). The NetApp pass-through panel kit contains the following hardware: One pass-through blanking panel Four 0-32 x.75 screws Four 0-32 clip nuts a. Determine the vertical location of the switches and blanking panel in the cabinet. In this procedure, the blanking panel will be installed in U40. b. Install two clip nuts on each side in the appropriate square holes for front cabinet rails. c. Center the panel vertically to prevent intrusion into adjacent rack space, and then tighten the screws. d.

5 . With one person holding the front of the chassis level, the other person should fully tighten the four rear screws to the cabinet posts. c. With the chassis now supported without assistance, fully tighten the front screws to the posts. d. Repeat steps 5a on page 4 through 5c on page 5 for the second switch at the RU42 location. Note: By using the fully installed switch as a support, it is not necessary to hold the front of the second switch during the installation process. 6. When the switches are installed, connect the jumper cords to the switch power inlets. 7. Connect the male plugs of both jumper cords to the closest available PDU outlets. Note: To maintain redundancy, the two cords must be connected to different PDUs. 8. Connect the management port on each 332Q-V switch to either of the management switches (if ordered) or connect them directly to your management network. The management port is the upper-right port located on the PSU side of the switch. The CAT6 cable for each switch needs to be routed through the pass-through panel after the switches are installed to connect to the management switches or management network.
